As part of this evaluation process, designers must achieve five environmental information criteria (location, time, weather, nature, and people) to obtain an excellent view. To the best of our knowledge, these criteria have not yet been verified and their scientific validity remains conjectural. In a two-stage experiment, a total of 451 persons evaluated six window view images. Using machine learning models, we found that the five criteria could provide accurate predictions for window view preferences. When one view was largely preferred over the other, the accuracy of decision tree models ranged from 83% to 90%. For smaller differences in preference, the accuracy was 67%. As ratings given to the five criteria increased, so did evaluations for psychological restoration and positive affect. Although causation was not established, the role of most environmental information criteria was important for predicting window view preferences, with nature generally outweighed the others. We recommend the use of the environmental information criteria in practice, but suggest some alterations to these standards to emphasize the importance of nature within window view design. Instead of only supporting high-quality views, nature should be promoted across all thresholds dictating view quality.","PeriodicalId":49911,"journal":{"name":"Leukos","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2022-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80798300","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this article, we found that spline interpolation is better than the parabolic solution for predicting CCT and D uv. Therefore, we propose two new hybrid methods based on the triangular and either spline interpolation or third-order interpolation using two local function values and two local second-order derivative values.

Repeated assessments of self-reported sleepiness, cognitive performance and physiological arousal as well as subjective visual comfort were taken during each light condition. Results showed that alertness-related parameters were not significantly affected by the light conditions: neither the intermittent nor the bright condition improved alertness compared to the dim condition.

Hence, it may not be comprehensive to evaluate the luminous efficiency in a lighting environment only through the metrics with respect to lamps. Previous studies have investigated the effect of surface reflection on luminous efficiency, but few quantitative metrics have been proposed so far. In this study, statistical analysis and a validation experiment were conducted to investigate the extent to which the luminous efficacy of radiation (LER) determines the luminous efficiency of a colored surface. The correlation analysis was performed based on an index of the surface spectral reflectance, namely, the spectral reflectance luminous efficacy of radiation (SRLER). The correlation between the SRLER and LER varied with respect to the hues and saturation levels of the colored objects. In particular, highly linear correlations were observed in slightly saturated and highly saturated green, yellow, and purple-blue samples but not in highly saturated reddish samples. This suggests that when the illuminated environment contains a large portion of highly saturated reddish objects, the effectiveness of the LER is dependent on the spectral selectivity of the colored surface. The findings of this study contribute significantly to the comprehensive design of light source spectra and energy saving in actual lighting scenarios.","PeriodicalId":49911,"journal":{"name":"Leukos","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72839245","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An optical lock-in spectrometer was designed for this purpose and integrated in a spectral radiant flux measurement facility. It was applied to incandescent and fluorescent lamps, as well as lamps based on white phosphor-converted LEDs and tunable RGB LEDs. The results are well correlated with the light emission processes of each technology. For incandescent lamps, the spectral modulation follows a 1/λ relationship in agreement with the blackbody radiation laws. Measurements performed on halophosphate and tri-phosphor tubes agree well with published data. The modulation and phase spectra of fluorescent lamps reveal a variable modulation rate across the visible range, directly related to the fluorescence lifetimes of the different luminophores, which were estimated from our data using a model of single exponential decay.The spectral modulation of white phosphor-converted LED lamps is nearly constant across the visible spectrum, demonstrating that their color parameters can be assessed from the lock-in modulation amplitude spectrum. In the case of tunable RGB LED lamps using PWM, the spectral modulation widely differs from the steady-state spectral distribution and changes with the user settings, confirming the possible occurrence of temporal color artifacts. Optical lock-in spectrometry can be used to improve spectral and color measurements of solid-state lighting, opening new opportunities for laboratory and remote sensing applications. Other foreseeable applications of optical lock-in spectrometry are also presented.","PeriodicalId":49911,"journal":{"name":"Leukos","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2022-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90979227","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The accuracies were evaluated for LED sources with correlated color temperatures ranging from 2351 K to 6922 K. The hyperspectral cameras tested were found to have acceptable radiometric accuracies for chromatic content and different photometric and colorimetric accuracies. It was also identified that a good radiometric/photometric accuracy does not necessarily indicate a good colorimetric accuracy for the same device and color. It depends on the light sources and color patches, thus highlighting the need to identify the reproduction accuracy of every test device methodically.

These effects include improved health, well-being (Beute and de Kort 2014), emotion (Ko et al. 2020), cognitive performance (Boubekri et al. 2020; Jamrozik et al. 2019; Ko et al. 2020), environmental satisfaction (Yildirim et al. 2007), reduced discomfort (Aries et al. 2010) and stress recovery (Ulrich 1984). A good window view may also increase the economic value of buildings (Baranzini and Schaerer 2011; Damigos and Anyfantis 2011; Turan et al. 2021). Even though many benefits from window views have been recognized, there are few design guidelines for assessing window view quality (CEN/TC 169, CEN/TC 169 2018; IWBI 2020; USGBC 2019). Moreover, the proposed approaches are not often supported by comprehensive and conclusive research findings. Although existing research has attempted to evaluate window view quality using a variety of assessment methods (Hellinga and Hordijk 2014; Li and Samuelson 2020; Mardaljevic 2019; Matusiak and Klöckner 2016; Turan et al. 2021), there is little alignment between methodologies and each of these studies only partially addresses the complex relationships between windows, outdoor and indoor conditions, and occupants (Ko et al. 2021; Waczynska et al. 2020). We lack consensus on a unified definition for window view quality that is applicable across occupancies and building types. In addition, while this is a topic of growing interest, there is limited research underway due to its complex nature, insufficient funding, and a lack of coordinated effort to move the field forward. In response to these problems, some of the authors of this editorial participated in a workshop on window view quality on October 28, 2021 at the University of California, Berkeley, which was complementary to a Virtual Symposium on Research and Design Practice Related to Window Views (“Symposium on Research and Design Practice Related to Window Views” 2021). This position statement started to take shape during this workshop. The symposium aimed to enhance interest and understanding among stakeholders regarding the benefits, complexities, and assessment methods for window views. The workshop aimed to engage the building science and design communities in this growing field, reach a consensus on the primary components of window view quality, and identify research gaps in current view assessment methods.","PeriodicalId":49911,"journal":{"name":"Leukos","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2022-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90892254","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
